Built for the pressroom
AJ Flexo provides patented end seals invented by the firm’s founder and owner.
At AJ Flexo, we offer proprietary and custom end seal solutions, flexo pressroom parts, advanced printing sleeves, carbon fiber (CFRP) bridges and shafts, metering blades, magnetic ink filtration systems, along with engineering and rapid prototyping services.
Trusted solutions. Proven designs. Decades of experience.
Our approach is simple: We learn your inks, substrates, equipment, speeds, and quality requirements, then recommend the solution that best fits your operation. Experience has taught us that one-size-fits-all rarely works in flexographic printing. You deserve a solution built around your pressroom.
You deserve AJ Flexo.

In flexographic printing, INOMETA stands for innovation, precision, and outstanding quality. For more than 40 years, INOMETA has developed and manufactured high-performance, lightweight rotary components for demanding printing applications.
INOMETA’s coordinated product portfolio includes pneumatic and hydraulic carbon fiber (CFRP) bridge carriers, along with InoShaft CFRP lightweight print mandrels and shafts.
InoShaft™ technology is engineered to support higher press speeds while reducing the bounce and deflection commonly associated with steel shafts and mandrels—helping operators increase production speeds while minimizing bounce- and banding-related print defects.
At less than half the weight of comparable steel shafts, InoShaft™ technology can also reduce rotating mass, lowering demands on press components and supporting longer bearing life.

The cornerstone of the Eclipse R2000 system is safety and speed. Due to the patented “self-cooling” elliptical laser, the system does not generate the “hot spots” common with conventional linear laser systems.
The Eclipse R2000 is not only effective at removing printing ink, but also the tough stuff. Varnish, lamination adhesives, anti-fog chemistries, and many other hard-to-remove materials are easily removed with the elliptical laser pattern.
The Eclipse tackles all of your anilox-cleaning issues—not just printing ink.
The Eclipse system is now available with the MicroDynamics inspection system integrated into the control logic.
The AJ Flexo advantage
Every pressroom has different equipment, inks, speeds and production demands. AJ Flexo combines deep industry knowledge with rapid prototyping and custom design to solve the actual problem.
Prompt answers, honest lead times and direct access to experienced support.
Engineering and rapid prototyping are provided at no charge in most cases.
Practical expertise navigating freight, customs and supply across global markets.
